Anyone ever use this place? i've been searching forever for a self paced online program where you dont have to fly half way across the country to do a skills week. this place does the skills portion via webcam in 2 hour increments. the only drawback is its 3k... Anyone know of a scholarships or any other ideas?

Where are you located that you cannot get an in person class?
NREMT is not accepted in all states and you will still need state certification to practice anywhere. Some will grant you reciprocity based on NREMT certification and some will require you to take a test based on their state standards.
If you have done online classes and feel like it is something you can commit to and learn from. Then that takes care of the didactic portion. For the skills side, even with them sending you all the equipment. I wonder how well you will be able to learn and be proficient in them all on your own. You can watch youtube videos from today till next year, but there is nothing like seeing/feeling it in person.
All that being said, it could work for you and depending what you plan on doing with the cert could pay off. I made back the money I paid for EMT and Medic school in spades in the first year after school alone.
If you need help throughout the course feel free to reach out.
